I have been dwelling on this for a while now, and I have decided to quit this site. I really do have an active life, but there are things -specifically things that have been said - and that is the main reason I am going.
I didn't save the time stamp, but I saw Tallsie's post about Stormy leaving because "she didn't want to put forth the effort". Among other things said, that is just plain rude. Any admin of a site should behave as a responsible adult, a mature one, and bad mouthing any one, or any site, or putting words in their mouth, or anything of the sort, is far from even remotely mature at best. It is poor leadership, and it is hard to respect anyone who abehaves as such. I can spend the time I am online at sites with admins who behave better. And before you accuse me of being the person reporting this site to Proboards, you are dead wrong. I did not. For one, its none of my business. Secondly, if you're going to have a site, you ought to be responsible enough to follow ToS- anywhere. Why should people follow your rules if you can't accept someone else's?
Anyhoo, I'm out.I took the liberty of deleting my posts and info.
i don't have a problem with you having a life. everyone does, but at the same time i am trying to run something i have created and am attempting to keep alive, and i cannot do that by myself.
as far as any "rudeness" goes, i have been bluntly honest but not rude. it's fine that everyone has school and things but as a member i expect you to carve out some time for us as well, and if you can't do that then we might not be the site for you.
regoards to the tos, i don't believe anywhere on the forum i have specifically mentioned my thoughts. yes, i do not agree with proboards tos on several matters but i have also stated that we will follow it, so whatever rules you think i am breaking, i am afraid you are misinformed.
also, anything that is said on the cbox does not have anything to do with proboards itself, as they are two completely different companies. the fact that you mention we were "reported" raises red flags for me because i have not received any PMs, so i am already suspicious.
I'm more than certain that ProBoards have more serious matters to deal with over whatever this site was reported for. What for, really? I'm a loose person concerning rules myself and I get so fired up when people obsess over them so intensly. ProBoards posted out some basic rules for people to follow. If you think they have the time and energy to run around from forum to forum to make sure everybody follows them by letter, you guys need to think again.
Anyway, I just wanted to get the rules matter off my chest. I'll miss you White, see you elsewhere someday hopefully!
